A hero neighbour stopped a potential explosion by pulling a can of burning petrol from underneath a car after arsonists planted it there.

CCTV footage shows two hooded men pouring fluid onto the back of a Range Rover Sport parked on a driveway in Hardwick, Stockton.

The petrol can burns for more than three minutes before a neighbour spots the fire.
